adam and ricky bibey , rob roberts , richard moore............them guys were the fruit cakes in 04 i think it was

I would have to have Joe Walsh , Jeff Clarke , Tony Cooke and Dessie in that team

Fruitcakes maybe, but not really hard men who would put in the big hits and stand toe to toe!!

What happened to Adam Bibey?

at full back Mick Hogan ..solid would tackle owt
dessie ont wing.... never backed down just ask Mal Meninga
at scrum half Ken Green... little bloke stood toe to toe with some big blokes and had a go
Adrian Earner ....would start a fight with himself and probably lose
Tony Cottrell .... hard as nails on the pitch true gent off it
Tim Street .. daft as a brush legend nuff said

toughest player for leigh in my opinion was dennis boyd.

Not the first to ask that question

I was speaking to him last year and told me he had his own window cleaning business

Dessie's got to be on the wing

Problem i've got is i'm not old enough to remember some of these players. About 1989 onwards I can remember.

It was 06 not 04

Was speaking to Adam yesterday, he's not playing Rugby anymore.

1. Hogan
2. Dessie
3. Dorrington
4. Boyd (I know he wasnt a centre but would you have liked to run at him???)
5. Walsh
6. Woods
7 Green
8. Stan Owen
9 Ashcroft
10 Robinson
11. Clarkson
